Quick Hit: Under Armour to Make MLB Jerseys Starting in 2019

For what seems like forever Majestic has made jerseys for
Major League Baseball, well it hasn’t been forever but they have been making
batting practice jerseys for the sport since 1982 and has made all their
jerseys exclusively since 2005 but still, but that is all set to change in
2019. In 2019, a year earlier than expected, under Armour will begin making the
batting practice and game uniforms according to the league.

Under Armour will also make dugout clothing for the 2018
postseason before fully taking over the on-field apparel in 2019. Fanatics
Inc., who owns Under Armour, purchased the business, the plant in Easton,
Pennsylvania and the 600 employees from Majestic back in December.

Not really big news here but it’s kind of a lazy and hot
Saturday anyway so I thought why not share.
